AB  - The prediction of material properties using ab-initio simulations [1] is a research field of fundamental significance due to the multitude of materials applications in technology and research. Such simulations can require huge computational resources if carried out for many materials, and thus the possibility to employ machine learning methods offers potential benefit by restricting the materials search space.In our work, we demonstrate this idea for the particular field of ordered and disordered magnetic Heusler alloys. In detail, we focus on theirCurie-temperature, which often is the major quantity describing the fitness of a magnetic material for application. Thus, we studied the possibility to predict the Curie-temperature and thereby classifying the materials relevance for possible technical application using machine-learning algorithms.We compared the performance of regression models and classification models in order to predict the range of the Curie-temperature of given compounds to demonstrate the possibility to reduce the computational expanses of simulating this quantity. This work can be seen as a small-scale case study in which lightweight machine learning algorithms can add value to existing simulation data and eventually replace costly computational steps in layered calculation workflows in the future. In addition, we demonstrate, that such models can lead to interesting unbiased physical insight.
